Maitake Beta-Factor Dr. Nanba's
Maitake Mushroom for Botanical Immune Support

Maitake mushroom (Grifola frondosa) has a long history of traditional use, but it is only recently that modern science has made possible the creation of a highly specialized maitake product, rich in beta-glucans. Dr. Nanba's Maitake Beta-Factor contains the only maitake beta-glucan fraction endorsed by the world's premier maitake researcher, Dr. Hiroake Nanba, Ph. D. This specialized beta-glucan fraction, MaitakeGold 404, is a biological compound believed to have important health-promoting properties. Dr. Nanba's Maitake Beta-Factor combines MaitakeGold 404 with maitake fruiting body, maitake mycelia biomass, calcium, and vitamin C. This blend offers you a full spectrum of maitake activity.

Maitake: Rich Source of Polysaccharides
Maitake is a rare edible mushroom that is native to northern Japan. In Japanese maitake means "Dancing Mushroom," because people would dance for joy when they found it in deep mountain valleys. Maitake is a rich source of polysaccharides - compounds found in some plants that are increasingly recognized for their ability to support the body's immune defenses. Maitake's benefits are thought to be due to specific polysaccharides known as betaglucans, which are polysaccharides bound to proteins.
